Yes, I change all of my engines now to Cyclone, I measured exactly, I have 15-20 more altitude than any other engines.
I used in this Year this engines, and I very satisfied with them.
On the World Champs I have made mistake in the fly-off.
Best regards

RDT and instant release:
From: Allard Van Wallene [This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.]
So what does the Sporting code say?
"F1A models may use radio control only for irreversible actions to restrict the flight (dethermalisation).
Any malfunction or unintended operation of these functions is entirely at the risk of the competitor."
Please note the word "only". This means that any other functionality is prohibited. Opening a hook is an irreversible action, but it does not restrict the flight.
Maybe if you float the model off in a downer, you could argue that you opened the hook to restrict the flight....
Following Aram's arguments, I could use my RDT system to trim straight tow, circle tow, OLA trajectory on an official flight?
Ian, any comments??
ciao
